New to Spec Boxster

Hi All, just posted my intro in the appropriate forum but want to intro myself here too.

Recently purchased a 1999 Spec Boxster on Bring a Trailer a few weeks ago. Car was from So Cal and now resides in Atascadero Ca. Car needs some cosmetic love but that part is easy. The hard part is that the car has a 2.7 motor and this was not known until I got it back to my shop and started poking around. The seller agreed to a price reduction since it was being sold as a class legal Spec Boxster. The jumping in price was reasonable so not a big problem to do a motor swap.

I have owned a street Boxster many years ago but never tracked it because it was my wifes car and I had race cars already.

I will have lots of questions about what parts I may need for speed and other assorted things.

My history with road racing goes back 22 years with SCCA, NASA and POC. Almost all of them in Spec cars. Pro 7 (1st gen RX7), Spec Miata, 944Spec and now Spec Boxster.

I am looking forward to some great racing with POC and PCA in California.

See you at the track once they finally get back to operating.
